Happy 4:20! What has the world come to?
I put this on Facebook before the Humboldt Broncos Vigil tonight (and after some time has passed, I may share some other thoughts on that) but wanted to capture it here too since Facebook sucks. 😉 I’m not unusual in Canada for how much hockey has meant to me my whole life. I was never […]
During my time at library school, we did as much traveling around Ontario and other destinations in the area including one memorable train trip to Montreal.
This is a video I made in the lead-up to the 2013 Sask NDP Leadership Vote. And honestly, do I detect an echo? So many of the things that Ryan led in during in the last leadership race are areas where he’s once again leading in – fundraising, “fun”raising, engaging members, online engagement, etc. etc. etc. […]

I’d like to talk to you from a different perspective – as a working librarian […]
There are concurrent leadership races happening in each of Saskatchewan’s two major political parties but it often feels like the party’s leadership candidates are running in completely different worlds.
